French to English Art/Literary Cooking / Culinary
From a text on the last word in gastronomy...

It's an invitation to come and sample a wide range of new flavors...

"Tous ces chefs mettent tous leurs talents au service de la tradition et de la qualité donannt tout son sens à un véritable Art de Vivre.

Not sure what is mean here...Any culinary experts out there?
Thanks!
I assume I should leave Art de Vivre in French?

bringing real meaning to a veritable Culinary Experience/Art of Living

A bit more literal.

The only reason I'd leave Art de Vivre in French is that it has been given capitals. Having said that, I don't really think that it has yet become a generally accepted term in English, as have Joie de Vivre and Savoir Faire, and would therefore seriously consider translating it. Do look at the links above for more inspiration! One of them suggests using the term as it is, but peer comments suggest that this isn't necessarily the best choice
Peer comment(s):

agree Laurence Idezak (X) : Like both of your suggestions but 1st one real transalation into English, which is always best so ..
